Linen is one of the best fabrics for summer because it not only looks great, it’s simultaneously breathable and durable. Given linen’s popularity, unparalleled breathability, and accessibility, you really should give it a shot, though, yes, it wrinkles.
How To Wear Linen?
Linen suits for men are practically designed to help you feel cool at a summer wedding, both in comfort and in style. When even tropical-weight wool and silk blends feel too heavy and restrictive, a linen suit jacket feels almost like wearing nothing. And in terms of versatility, it beats other fabrics by a mile. Wearing linen pants can be just as cool (if not cooler) than shorts, without exposing your legs to the sun (or running afoul of a more restrictive dress code).
Linen garments have been cut on the looser/baggier side, both due to different trends and to optimize air circulation. As a result, many of the clothes you’ll come across won’t fit the way you might be used to. There’s nothing wrong with a more relaxed fit, especially in the summer.

How To Wear A Linen Shirt?
Wearing a linen shirt (short or long sleeve, depending on the occasion) helps you stand out–in a good way. You can dress one up with chinos and loafers, or down with a pair of slim shorts and some espadrilles. A linen shirt looks great with denim shorts and birkenstocks for every day. A looser linen shirt as part of a smart casual outfit or beachwear is fine. Get inspired by various ideas below and create your own cool looks with linen shirts!
